I don't understand something. How do conspiracy theorist decide what is the truth? Surely they sometimes see something and say "Well that is just weird. It can't be true".
I've got fairies living in the garden and the government is putting up 5G towers to spy on them!!!
If I define that statement as a personal belief why does it have any less credibility than "Climate change is a hoax"
Personally my own theory is that in their own mind, they are more intelligent than most people, researched this stuff on the internet and have knowledge that most people don't. They are not one of the sheep. They are too smart for that.
